I wish I could say I liked this more but I really can't. The art isn't great, the story is fine but remains flat. The message at least in this first issue could have been something with Batman rescuing a person going down a dark road and them taking his example to better their lives and try and preach that to others but John just creates another gang. Sure a few Gothamites are thankful they interceded into altercations but they created just as much damage as there would have been. Batman not putting a stop to vigilantes outside of his control doesn't feel right in any situation or time period of his tenure.
